    I read somewhere when Jones played center he had above average range, good feilding percentage, and a # of outfeild assists. I don't see why it would be such a disaster to put Jones in Center as almost everybody here seems to be suggesting. .

    I'm really glad the Cubs don't cave and do that. It's right up there with Wrigley not having a video screen for me. Every time I go to a game where they're blasting "theme music," it suddenly feels less like baseball and more like wrestling. Pass. Well I don't go to the games any more so I don't care. I'd just like to see the crowds reaction if KW had a theme song. I guess I'll get to look foward to their reaction to Lou's base throwing though. Now that's something to look foward to. :D

    Cubs already have a simliar player in Ryan Theriot. Please tell me you were joking? Please? Neifi Perez and Sammy sosa were simular.

    Howabout Alan Parsan's Project. . Rock 'n Roll pt. 2 (The Hey Song) Zombie Nation Get Loose Because we can Start the Commotion (and boy in Wrigely would there be) The Rockafeller Skank I really think Kerry Wood should have a theme song. I really wish the Cubs would get with the times and start doing that every so often. We as Cubs fans make alot of noise. But could you imagine the place if they played a rockin jock jam before KW came out?

    Would you be happy if I did a countdown til cubs convention?

    well, corey patterson didn't turn out too bad for them. They figured they'd give another one a shot. :D

    Not me. I'm enjoying it in my fine tradition. Listening to the player and ron and pat interviews on the radio. Then proceeding to listen to them again, and again, for weeks, until spring training starts. Just incase anyone wanted to know. :lol: Have fun though!!

    Way to totally contradict yourself in the span of there sentences. Oh yeah, I didn't think about that. I missed it. Good points though. We could be stellear, we could be terrible. But we'll probably be somewhere in between. As the optomistic cubs fan, I cross my fingers that it will be just a little bit closer to stellar than disaster.

    I think it also shows how much people underrate pitchers when trying to pin a number on them. Yeah, in a perfect world, the Cubs would have the Tigers rotation of last year and have four significantly above-average starters. But they don't. I don't care what world you live in, the Cubs do not have one #1, three #4s and a #5, at least not unless everything goes wrong. Well I have been saying that this whole time, and now this new article proves it. Even at WORST we don't have three #4's. And at BEST we've got a #2 and #3. This article doesn't prove anything. We could have any number of combinations next seasons. What we do know is we don't have a lockdown guaranteed #2. The rest we'll find out during the season. It's pitching, therefore it's unpredictable. Yes I agree. But I do say we've got quite alot of depth. And it's more likely than last year we have someone in there that can beat the average "#2" ERA. What happens if Marquis improves from his bad year? Well he's more like an average #4. So we might have a 1, two 3's, and two 4's. Who knows.

    It would be worth it :):) I'll help him pay for it.

    Give me Floyd and let's play some ball.

    There goes the credibility. ? In case you didn't know the Dodgers sorta have a good farm system. Incase you sorta don't know the Dodgers gave Pierre $50 million dollars. I can understand the Cubs system rating low. But I don't understand why the "Major League" got an F? I mean we were the most aggressive team in the offseason. Got the top 2 men on offense, improved the bullpen and bench a bit, and stabilized the SP. I don't see how that deserves an F. They lost all credibility right from the start. I can understand maybe a C or something. But F? What do they think we'll finish last again? What a laugh.

    When I first read it, I thought it was some sports annalysist saying "Best bet to win it all, the Cubs or Mets". . :P

    Might could someone tell me what is wrong with regional slang? Any of y'all might could respond. :wink: Any one of You'ns could respond.

    NOT WORTH IT. Z is great and all and a fabulous Cub and pitcher but no pitcher is worth this kind of contract. Mr. MacPhail, is that you? No, it's a rational cubs fan. The ONLY players that are worth that kind of mone are an A-rod, Manny Ramirez calibur offensive player. And yes by saying that I'm saying Soriano ain't worth that. But alteast with him I think we are overpaying by a few mil a year, and we had to. With Zito you are overpaying about $7 mil a year.

    I know I'm not supposed to be here. But ### damnit people, is this a PIE thread or a mark grace thread? Maybe we can change the name of the topic, or get back on topic?
  19. A New Era
    hahahaha, very true. By then though, I expect atleast 2 of Hill, Marshall, Guzman, Marmol, Veal to be on the starting rotation and being very good. As well as one of Pie and Patterson and also being very good. You will also have some contracts coming off the books also.

    Alot of people were saying the same things about his brother. And Jones outproduced Brian last year. Could we atleast give Derosa a chance? You're back. Do I really need to go around saying this all the time? Cut the guy a little slack, alright? I'm tired of this crap. Thanks Tim! It'd sure be nice if people actually responded to my comment, instead of resorting to child like teasing.

    It's a god damn #. I for one welcome Marquis to the Cubs, and root for him to have a GREAT year as a Cub, and if he want's 21, then he can have it. If you want to HONOR your past players. Raise flags with their NAMES. Say RON SANTO played here, We salute SAMMY SOSA, formor great Cub. It's a #. It's a NUMBER.

    are you gone yet Hey, I'm not around. . . . as much. Are you guys gonna linger on what I said? Look I was having a bad day, my health hasn't been good. I was upset.
  24. A New Era
    I'm tellin you guys. Hill is the next "zambrano" out of the cubs orginazation. And you're gonna be glad they held onto him.
  25. A New Era
    You trade the posible next Zambrano (in hill) out of your rotation. You trade Murton. And by the way, how the heck did you slip dunn in there, like that's some easy task to get Dunn AND tejada. "this ain't fantasy baseball, hyeh hyeh!"
